Rnews is a lot more effort though,
I don't recommend starting out like this.
Especially I could not directly find a HTML version,
but the HTML version is the most important one to bring more
life into it. Not many people read pdf versions unless it is printed.

And a prited GRASS periodical seems to be too much to tackle
currently. And if you wanted to have it, we could bring in
a couple of other "printed" periodicals around projects, 
which are well done. ;-)
